Subject: pine gets hung periodically

We installed pine using imap4, and {sever}/var/spool/mail on SunOS4.1.x. 
It works ok except it periodically gets hung, for example, when first started 
and when sending an email message. I determined it is not a network 
related problem. "trace -p <pid-of-pine>" shows the following repeated
system calls. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
